Texas GulfLiner to Mardi Gras 

Tickets to ride the Texas GulfLiner to Mardi Gras February 22 and 23 and March 1 and 2 are still available.  

"We are going to have super liner double-decker cars, that have not been seen in this part of the country," said Marie Janke of The Goodman Corporation.  

The train will depart from League Park in League City at 10 a.m. on Saturday to transport passengers to Galveston's Railroad Museum.  There will be several trips throughout the day, with the final return to League City at 10 p.m. after the parade.  Free parking, with shuttle service to the train, will be provided at the Bay Area Park and Ride lot at Bay Area Boulevard and Feathercraft Avenue.

The same schedule will be followed on the final Mardi Gras weekend.

Tickets are $16 for adults, and half-price for children ages 2 to 15 and seniors over 65.
